Is it safe to adjust drag while hooked?
#11
Agreed.. I have an old reel with a lever on it for quick drag adjustments.. Just need to be sure you flip it the right direction..

I like a lighter drag to start with for bigger fish and then as they wear out a little I start to put more pressure on the drag.. Also, if you are using a bait caster try putting your thumb on the line as the fish is running to add a little drag to it without actually adjusting the drag..
